Communication: FOURTH PERIOD

A randomized 25 question test from a pool of 761 questions, good luck!
There are numerous I/O modules that a typical DCS has access to. Which of the modules below is described as one that the scanner module receives information communicated digitally from up to 63 supported devices?
In networking, the ability to transmit data is vital. Which of the terms below would best be described as a networks ability, within a specific amount of time, to insure the delivery of data or node communication?
Modbus has standard command codes to allow the master to access information from it's slaves. Which of the commands below would be used to read the input status of coils on a slave device ?
Data communication in a DCS takes the form of various net works. Which of the networks below connects to servers that share business data?
One of the layers of the OSI manages access to be able to transmit data. Which of the answers below represents that layer?
IPv4 network classes can also be defined by the IP address they use. Which of the answers corresponds best to the address in row "I"?
There are a collection of standards that defines the access control for wireless Ethernet. Which one of the answers below is the standard for initiating a WLAN?
Which of the data rates below best represent one that is not used on a DeviceNet segment?
Baseband NRZ signalling is the standard for all physical connections with Ethernet. Which of the signalling methods below has the disadvantage of losing the clock signal when spaces are transmitted for an extended series?
The installation of a SCADA system has several difficulties associated with it. Which of the challenges below would be best defined as one that accommodate with the amount data throughput?
With any GUI, there are opportunities to use gathered data visually. Which of the methods below would be best described as one that would allow an operator to retrieve and plot data over an extended time frame?
Digital signals are, either specific or transitory, voltage levels represent states of logic. Which of the signal encoding methods below uses voltage transitions to represent logic states?
IPv4 network classes can also be defined by the IP address they use. Which of the answers corresponds best to the address in row "A"?
Which of the lengths below relates best to a spur cable with 1 field device connected?
IPv4 network classes can also be defined by the IP address they use. Which of the answers corresponds best to the address in row "F"?
There are two types of Ethernet connector cables. Which type of connector cable is pictured below?
IN IPv4 both static and dynamic addressing can be used in conjunction with each other. Which of the situations below needs to be focused on when using both addressing options?
Of the problems below, which would be best solved by shielding on cables?
The addition of BCC to the message frame increases the efficiency of detecting errors in transmissions. which one of the error check systems employs a calculated total by the receiver in comparison to the total of the received data?
With IPv4, you would use static address assignment over dynamic for this primary reason?
There are numerous I/O modules that a typical DCS has access to. Which of the modules below is described as one that converts a digital signal to 8 or 16 outputs?
In the protocol specifications of Modbus, there are only four types of registers that can be accessed by the master. Which of the answers below expresses the register size and permissions of an input register?
There are several data access methods used to transmit data. Which of the answers below can be described as a method that is suitable for larger networks?
Which of the antenna below can be best described as "omnidirectional"?
In a typical GUI, values take one of four generic indicators. Which of the indicators below would best used where discrete data needs to be provided, but a simple colour change will suffice?
